Last night millions of people... All from different backgrounds..different religions....different nationalities... Different skin colors...different sexual orientations ... Overall different beliefs came together on social media platforms ....all for the well-being of one man.. A race car driver..with one common goal..... Praying for his safety after a horrific on track incident many of us would t forget....
And today he is getting treatment and recovery for his non life threatening injuries
HOW COOL IS THAT!
Now if we could all do that everyday imagine what this world would be like
#NEWMANSTRONG
Absolutely!! There is space and most types of racing you see that in, not much else, so I is awesome (and will be even more awesome if he gets back to full health)
Butt Head, That is the importance of sports! and music. It brings people together no matter the difference and you hit the nail on the head.
Bullshit! We all watch these people for a good wreck..... Spectacular!
@@BobM.-to9ji your a idiot
@@BobM.-to9ji yeah a lot of people do watch to see incident because things have gotten a LOT safer-- but the ONLY kind of wrecks I want to see are the ones where they climb right out of the car, have legitimately MINOR injuries and are able to rebuilding keep racing (and that's a bit of a stretch even for me) I've known a few people that have died in drag racing, one in particular in an Alcohol Dragster (A/Fuel to specific) sent up a 40+ foot fire ball AND killed her son sitting in the tow vehicle (car blew over and came full throttle towards the starting line, full speed w/ glancing blows off the walls and HEAD ON into the tow vehicle where her son was sitting and killed them both -- crew was at the line and started running towards the car THEN away and over walls, etc. as they saw header flames coming towards them....but that goes beyond spectactular and is just horrific
(P.S. I'm not giving you sh*t, I'm just making a statement)
That was horrific to see and at the time it totally took my attention away from who won as I was only focused on Newman's car as soon as it went airborne. My immediate reaction was jump up off the couch, stare at the tv hoping he was ok and tearing up remembering seeing Sr's crash. As more and more interviews were conducted, driver's attitudes and no mention of Ryan's condition, my tears turned into a full on cry as I was not ready to see another die at Daytona, but man am I relieved to hear of the at least for now non life threatening injuries! Thoughts and well wishes to all the family, crew, friends and fans of all who were involved!!!!!
kooldawg6 I had the same reaction and feelings.
kooldawg6 ....Its a chance they take every weekend,,they sacrifice their lives for the big bucks,,so it’s the chance they take,their dumb ass’s.
Sweet JR Ewing unless you have competed in a race car, you simply can not fully understand. There is no more feeling of being alive than being strapped into a race car and mixing it up wheel to wheel.
It’s dangerous, it’s loud, it’s hot, it’s uncomfortable, and it’s the greatest thing in the entire world.
I don’t blame them one bit nor think it stupid. Risks are as managed as possible until something freak happens, and they get managed some more.
@@sweetjrewing5435 you can say that with anything..how many pitbull attacks are on record but yet people still own them ..dumb ass's
Penalise drivers that push or bump.
the other drivers can now celebrate as completing the 500 , now knowing Ryan is in good controlled hands . Time to heal now, hopefully see ryan in a few weeks for a chat
John : I admit, I’m not a fan of Hamlin. He knew there was a horrible wreck behind him. His crew chief likely informed him as much. His celebration was totally out of line. Ryan Newman may not ever drive for NASCAR again? My prayers to Newman and his children.
John Klink He had no idea. The crew didn’t know how serious it was until after Hamlin disconnected from the radio and couldn’t tell him not to do burnouts.
It is an absolute miracle that he is even alive. Praise the lord. I hope we get to see rocket man race again soon.
9AM is 2
Ere ee. e
Wonder who will replace him.
The Lord didn't design or weld that car,praising the wrong guy?
@Ethan Weeter Hate to sound this way but look back to Talladega when Carl Edwards ran across the line and how bad his car looked...Ryan was also in that incident even though he may not have caused it...
Thoughts and prayers to Ryan and his family!! also, to the other drivers involved and nascar as a whole.. that was a father,brother,son and friend in that car!!! Larry said it the best ''racing is secondary''!!
Yeah the family environment you get in racing, especially drag racing is unlike anything else I have experienced and I know that goes for a lot of people. From the pro ranks to Sportsman Etc. Teams I haven't worked on in 15 years, will see me at a race and invite you over and it's awesome. It's a beautiful thing when the racing Community comes together but I really don't like when it comes at the expense of someone's health or even worse they find out somebody won't die and completely quit following the story, meanwhile they're recovering for years or never fully recover -- and you don't hear enough about that and end up having to dig through articles/videos to try to find out that sort of stuff :-(
Update: Ryan Newman is awake and speaking. Check CBS Sports.
@@DillonMurway I was actually just checking that out when I saw this alert, thank you!!
I like Larry Mac and Jamie together on the broadcast during the race
They should definitely announce the All Star or something.
Droidbait for sure!
That was definitely a serious crash, the hit to the cage was scary AF, great to hear that Ryan will be ok. It was one of those endings like Dale Earnhardt's was, waiting and hoping for good news, unlike that situation, we get a happier ending this time.
I don't think "Ok" Means what you think because he is still in serious condition who knows the extent of his Injuries.....
Yeah I was thinking the same thing when I watched the crash..!
@@skippingrhyme4386 that was my immediate thought, Robert Wickens survived and he is going through a lot trying to walk again so I really hope his quote unquote serious condition is something he can recover from fully :-(
Okay is a very relative term here... there are many types of injuries that are not life threatening but that are life changing. We don't know, and the way they are carefully avoiding saying anything actually says a lot about how serious this situation is.
Worse then sr’s crash
Thank you, Lord, thank you, medical team and safety teams at the track. That was the worst crash I’ve seen in a long time and I feared the worst, but I’m so happy and relieved it looks like he’ll be alright.
So thankful that Ryan Newman will be able to recover from the crash. I'm glad that this 500 wasn't a repeat of 2001.
Been a Ryan Newman fan since the beginning of his career, thank God it's non life threatening injuries.
Prayers from Germany 🇩🇪🙏🏻
Werdermeister04 thank you
I am waiting for more info before declaring him 'okay'. He is in serious condition, albeit not life threatening, but it could be life altering. This kind of reminds me of Dale Sr's Talladega wreck in 1996 when he was hit while upside down directly on the roof. This hit was more to the driver cage rather than the door or roof, and I have to think head, neck or spinal injuries might be possible. The guy is tough, but I'm still praying this will all turn out alright.
I’m a KB fan, and when I saw Ryan Newman crash, I almost cried but I got scared for him to. Glad to hear he is ok.
For those comparing this wreck to Austin Dillon’s - Don’t, this wreck has already to be proven worse. To the point that the whole chassis just bent as he got hit from Lajoie it was a horrifying one. The outcome of this wreck is much better than Dillon’s outcome. We could only hope for injuries on Newman’s part. #PrayForNewman
KYFIT Productions this was literally a league of its own, a combination of Dillon and Smith (2011 Talladega).
Ryan Newman is as tough as they come. A brave man in a dangerous business. Praying Almighty God blesses him with healing quickly. Praying for Blaney as well, caught up in a tough spot.🙏🤕🙏🤕
Wishing him the best from Dublin IRELAND🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Once again in my opinion, the death of Dale Sr has once again saved the life of another Nascar driver. if it weren't for all the added safety devices in the car and on the track this could have been another Obituary column. Best wishes for Ryan and his family.
When I watched this wreck I think my heart stopped a liitle bit and then reminded me Dale Sr. crash in 2001 but this one was worst because of the double impact.
My prayers to Ryan Newman and his family.
Prayers and thoughts are with Newman and his family. Good to know they are not life threatening. My thoughts were like everyone else thinking back to senior's passing. We love the sport for the excitement it presents but we cant forget just how dangerous it is the job they do. Peace to all.
Thank God, Ryan Newman is okay, hopefully, He has a speedy recovery.
#RyanNewmanStrong 🙏
Lifting Ryan and his family and team all up in prayers.
Regardless of what changes, nascar will never keep drivers from trying to block.
I am so glad to hear that Ryan Newman is it going to be okay. That waved heavy on my mind all night. Good Lord was watching over him and all I can say is, Jesus saves.
James Hereford Nobody said he was going to be ok. Said it is not life threatening.
I think going to be ok is a stretch.
@BL St shut the fuck up. Stop speculating
Okay? I doubt it. He may be able to get around, but, his mind will be forever messed up.
@@johnklink4825 quit speculating dumb fuck.
this was the wreck that has been brewing for years at these tracks
Yeah and ironically Newman has been very outspoken about superspeedway racing. It'll be interesting to see what comes of this. We're used to seeing drivers hop out under their own power but tonight was a scary reminder that racing is dangerous and anything can happen
Jraybay this won’t change anything. Minor roll cage change maybe.
@@BlueTrane2028 Yeah the cars are extremely safe now. This was just one of those wrecks where everything went wrong. NASCAR will still look at ways to avoid this in the future though. Might not need to change anything in terms of roll cage but they might look at reducing speeds again or trying to find ways to keep them from flipping over
I think they'll start to look at why these cars are getting airborne when hitting the wall at an angle. Have seen quite a few last few years get airborne.
Shane it’s probably from how low they sit to the ground, once air gets under it it just lifts it off the ground, like the old Indycar bodies.
Praying for nothing but the best for all involved and Ryan Newman and family.
Mike Fifer
Unfortunately not life threatening does not necessarily mean not life altering. It is 2:30PM Tuesday afternoon and I am still waiting to hear (or see) the words like: awake, alert, communicating. I pray those words will soon come.
bigred1941 they just said he is awake and talking
@@eliwarren9401 Thank you -- I just verified it. "Roush Fenway Racing said Tuesday that Ryan Newman was awake and speaking with family and doctors a day after his horrific crash on the final lap of the Daytona 500." (Yahoo.com) That is GREAT news! Now let's pray for a full recovery... (and maybe some way for NASCAR to eliminate pack racing at Daytona and Talladega).
Prayers are with you brother...
Get well fast Ryan. Everyone wants to see you back asap. I am sure all our prayers helped. All nascar fans and nascar families are with brother.
Prayers for Ryan,his family and friends. Good bless.
I hear constantly that Ryan Newman does not have life threatening injuries , but nothing else. What is more worrying to me is that we don't hear anything else.
Dale Earnhardt's crash is a pinprick compared to this and Newman lived.
Take off some of the equipment they now wear that they didn't in 2001 and I'd say we would be hearing bad news unfortunately
CastrejonHDTV the 2020 car is also also has a ton of safety features that didn’t exist in 2001.
And the walls
Dale's crash seems somehow less brutal because of the angles.
Watch the video from a fixed point on the walls and you'll see how fast he got into that wall.
Maybe Ryan's was a bit faster because of the push and the fact that the cars were just exiting the turn instead of being in the middle of the turn.
But they are comparable I think ...
HANS device was the key factor...Earnhardt thought he was too tough to wear 1 and he was VERY wrong
Prayers for Ryan
It was awesome!!!!!! Now that was some racing! Good thoughts to him and his family.
J mac is great!
Crazy wreck. I grew up watching Newman race, sad this wreck is what made me pay attention to NASCAR again. Really feeling for him and his loved ones.
The issue isnt the type of hit to that part of the cage. The cage can handle it. The issue is there isnt a cage design or material that can withstand two impacts. Had that car not have impacted its roof before hand, the cage wouldn't have buckled so much.
@Idris Corvus right. The cage is designed to dissipate energy with minimal distortion. But after the first hit it no longer has it's full rigidity. Ever racer knows this. One of the reasons drag racers and street guys like me are getting away from chromoly chassis. They shatter after first impact
I'm glad that Newman is ok.... That was scary.
Thinks so much for this video.GOD. BLESS
A good frank discussion. No spin. Well done!
Pray for Newman
NASCAR became proactive after Dale's death because it could have been prevented. Since the 90's there were safer helmets to wear and by 2001 most were using them. Dale tried but didn't like the full face the safer helmet system used. He liked his open face helmet so he could feel the pressure when another car was closing in on him. If he had on the safer helmet system he wouldn't have broke his neck. Since then NASCAR spends a ton of money on safety and thank God it shined tonight because seeing that 2nd hit in super slow motion and seeing the crunch on impact followed by seeing the whole car bend into a u and seeing the roll bar down just above shoulder height had me deeply concerned. Prayers to Ryan and his family. Peace
Craig Wiggins dale wasn’t hearing his neck shit you idiot that’s how he died
This can be prevented as well. NASCAR and Daytona Speedway both know that the high banks / foot to the floor racing is dangerous, and that what happened to Ryan is in many ways not unusual and almost predictable. The banking in Daytona likely should be knocked down quite a bit to lower the overall speeds. Having to have restrictor plates and various other aero devices to slow the cars suggests that the track itself is the culprit here.
It wasnt the helmet, his safety harness aka seat belt, broke on impact sending him into the steering wheel which separated his brain from his spinal cord. He refused to wear a hans device but who knows if that would have saved him anyway since his safety restraint still broke.
Craig Wiggins Newman’s also lucky his car didn’t wind up in the catchfence
It’s a HANS device not a full face that would of saved him.
Ryan Newman has more than a few crashes where the car has gotten airborne over the years, but the one thing they can't control is injuries to the arms and legs, the only things that aren't strapped in. I'm waiting for Tuesday night's Race Hub to get an update.
The miracle of modern safety standards...and a huge slice of good fortune. Getting spun up towards the wall is bad but at front of a flat out, closed up bunch is worst of worst. Thank goodness🙏🙂
I was put off so much but the Hamlin celebration while Newman was trapped in the car. But we have to be careful to judge. Maybe he didn't know all what was happening.
However, it would be one of the greatest moments in the history of Sports if Hamlin and Gibbs and the team walked into that Hospital room this week and handed that Trophy to Newman.
Yes I know that's asking a lot of course ! Its such an accomplishment to win that Race. BUT, it would be not only uplifting for the Sport but for the Country as a whole at a time where we are so divided.
Just my thoughts. Probably won't happen.
My worry now is he does not ave a major permanent head injury. We know now after Dale Jr how bad concussions are I hope even if Ryan cannot get back on track he can make a full recovery so he can be there for his Girls
God lord I am REALLY glad all that fuel/oil didn't light (I REALLY DID NOT want to see a modern-day Swede Savage crash -- and I was really worried I was about too 😳)
That wasn’t fuel leaking....is was differential cooling fluid!
@@lantose yeah there was multiple fluids coming out! I was glad that there was oil with a small fire, because when fuel gets mixed into engine oil diff fluid transmission fluid etc etc that's when it gets bad. Like and Blown Alcohol Motors or Nitro Motors you always get fuel and oil mixed together. It's not uncommon to get pan fires in the pits I had that a few times when I worked on Top Fuel and Funny Car (you lower the oil pan and you get a fireball that comes out the sides of the pan and at the top of the motor to the guys working on the top end) -- anyways didn't mean to ramble on but yeah the thought of him being covered in oil or anything like that and it igniting was nerve-wracking, I'm just glad they we're very careful the way they put the fire out!!
No problem DME, I had just read about that in another article. It seemed plausible as the was no immediate ignition when the fluids were flowing directly next to the flames, not to say, if unattended, that something catastrophic might have happened!
@@lantose Oh absolutely! No problem here either, I was just sharing as well! 😁😊
Thank God rocket man is going to be ok,after watching big E crash ..it was scary. Get well soon rocket!!🙏
Jamie, they didn't say he was going to be ok. They said he would survive.
The fuel cells do an amazing job in containing the fuel, but not tonight. There was fuel leaking out of the car and they showed it on the broadcast. Newman got so lucky that fuel didn't light on fire.
I noticed the same thing.....luckily it was pouring onto the track and going down hill away from the flames.
I was screaming at the TV that whole time. So many scary things all packed into one wreck... Even after the update I was shaking for a while.
It was oil, not fuel.
Looked like coolant not fuel
@@lesleyboeder1798 thier would have been a ton of steam if it was coolant.
That is good news that Ryan Newman Is going to be okay We are all praying for him. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
NASCAR has been proactive in making crashes survivable and that is a very good thing. However, there doesn't seem to be any work being done to prevent these super speedway crashes. This race we had the big one, the second big one, the third big one, and the almost fatal one.
At some point, nascar or someone else in racing is gonna have to come to the conclusion that pack racing is WAY MORE dangerous than the speeds themselves. Perhaps it's time to revisit restrictor plates, or, are we gonna wait until someone gets killed??!!
Plates were removed last year because people were complaining about the racing. We have exciting racing now, but with this accident we’ve paid the cost for it
We pray for Ryan....
NASCAR needs ban intentional blocking and bumping before a series of fatalities shuts down the sport.
So take the racing out of racing. That's not gonna happen.
a race track is not a safe space
NASCAR Shall be Shutdown. Forget it and never remember it.
Thank god for the safety advances
Not life threatening doesn't mean life changing. Will he race again ?
Non life threatening absolutely can mean life changing. I'm a fan of all motorsports, but largely forms of racing outside of NASCAR. Bad wrecks like this are a lot more common in other racing, and we're use to seeing these type events play out once or twice a year. Just because he'll survive doesn't guarentee walking. That looked like a spinal compression type hit. The next thing will be seeing what his walking status will be.
I kind of doubt it. He always said he’d retire at 40 and he’s 42 now, so after this..? Plus, he has two beautiful little daughters who need their daddy around, which made seeing that crash that much more scary and poignant.
I think his wife might have something to say about this! They have so much to live for with their children and rescue ranch! Gut check for sure!
He has been released from the hospital
I heard as of 4m (Ocala, FL time) on NASCAR SiriusXM radio that Ryan Newman WAS AWAKE AND ALERT and talking to people
Hope he makes a full recovery.
Man, I thought for sure he was gone the moment I saw the roof impact. I cant help but think much of the rescue crew thought the same, putting up the black screens and all. So glad I was wrong. That Newman "kid" is one tough cookie. Once again, Dale Sr.'s sacrifice saved another life. Get well soon, Ryan Newman!
I'm happy for my favoites drive ryan newman is all good and we is ok .. we can't wait for june 7th to see the big race
Thoughts and prayers to the Newman family. Hope Ryan makes a speedy recovery
Thank god Ryan Newman is alright but some of you on here need to understand that there not using restrictor plates anymore so stop complaining saying they need to take them away because they are using tapered spacers now and have been for a year.
Just like Jeff Gordon said, this sport reminds us it’s dangerous and stuff is going to happen like this. I’m sure the next gen car will be more safer
pressure., my mistake. They may not call it restrictor plate anymore but you still have the same result. Very dangerous racing.
Do you realize a tapered spacer is a restrictor plate? It is a plate that goes from the throttle body down to .922 inch openings. Don’t let this lingo confuse you on what it is. The big difference is there is no longer a floor to create turbulence. By tapering a restrictor, you don’t lose as much power. The air doesn’t have as much stall and reversion. The main thing to take from this is that they are still mounting a plate between the throttle body and the manifold to restrict the air. Any other Motorsport calls this a restrictor. I use them for tuning on my sprint car as well.
I was certain that he was killed. Lajoie hit him and the roll cage collapsed. I’m so happy that he seems like he will be okay.
This incident was a reminder of 2 things: How far the safety measures have come, because 20 years ago that crash could've killed him, as well as how dangerous this sport still is regardless of the safety measure and how it can rear its ugly head at any given moment. Thank God Ryan is okay.
So what sweeping rule changes will we expect to see after this incident? Will they get rid of the overtime rule? Will they go like Indycar and ban blocking? Or will they do nothing at all? Any ideas?
crystaljon NASCAR will not ban blocking. It’s been in it since it’s founding. Overtime rule might get changed but not rid of. There’s crashes during normal race too.
Fans hate to see races finish under caution so the overtime rule will not change. Blocking is a part of racing and the driver that's doing the blocking knows the risk of being turned. This is all a part of racing.
They have gotten to the point of too many rules and trying to make everyone happy.
Fans will not be happy with whatever happens. JMO.
Well they probably change a few things one of them will probably be that when a wreck happens on a super Speedway throw the caution immediately which will win the race because it was on its last lap which flag went up of have ended the race and probably change the overtime rule as well on super Speedways
One more thing nascar, it aint rocket science. Strictor plates cause this holding wide open all day being tied together nose to tail hoping nobody gets stupid chop blocking til the end and just pray at end of 500miles of boring 200mph pace laps somebody dont die kinda racing. Heres a thought shrink cubic inches, lose the plates, cut rear spoiler to 3 inches, bring back bias ply tires and watch good racing return. I promise you if you force em to lift and use ample throttle up off turn. You got yourself a damn race. Because 40 drivers will lift some later some earlier 40 drivers pick up throttle at diff points and bias ply throws the wild card in it. I promise this, the stupid 30 cars tied together crap will go away and drivers will be busy driving and wont have a thought of blocking. There will be passing, getting passed or getting out of the way. Dont believe me. Just watch vintage 76 daytona 500 or 85 diehard 500 at dega. Any old fan knows what im shouting. Nascar quit being stupid. My hero #3 iron head is gone. Last night we bout lost flying ryan. Cmon france family it aint that hard
Exactly, and this green white checker on Daytona and Talladega needs to stop until they take them plates off.
I agree. Seems nascar would be ready to listen to fans seeing how attendence is way down, drivers forced to take less money and overall concensus is f$#! Nascar. I say to save our drivers lives fans should just stay away from gates at daytona and talledega as much as it pains me to say it. Because i grew up wanting to be a daytona 500 champ and win a 3 wide diehard 500 photo finish. Im 50 so my racing roots run deep. Eli gold and allan bestwick fired my need for speed sundays on mrn before tv ever showed. I remember sitn with dad in 79 watching 1st televised flag to flag daytona 500. Cale was my hero as a kid.. So that day solidified a love for stockcar racing forever. The 1st race i attended was 82 or 83 @ darlington and watched cale fight back all day only to lose to my next hero dale earnhardt. In them days we got in free if we wore our boy scout uniforms. So, no i dont nascar to die out. But i do think they can sh#tcan plate racing make the changes needed to race these giant arenas of speed and give drivers the ability to race the way it was meant to be. And the fans can force the issue to make it happen. Now whos with me. The france family dont own us and damn sure owe it to the sport,
Was terrible crash alot worse than dale Earnhardt by far just glad to see that rayn is going to be ok
In NASCAR everything is secondary to entertainment. Safety, and the integrity of racing itself.
You fans honestly don’t know what you want
This isn’t racing....this is show. Let’s go back to racing....
They need to stop ramming each other it's not racing if you hit the car an almost killed him Nascar is really pathetic.
They just need to do away with 2+ mile race tracks. Most drivers hate plate tracks anyways.
Sending prayers to Ryan and his family
I honestly dont think they need to mess with the racing, the racing was very good! But the safety of the cars was tremendous last night it saved his life. I think they can reinforce the upper part of the car. But please dont mess with the package that was a very good race
Nascar caused this situation with the rules. Drivers have to race with what is provided to them, this won't be the last accident with this package, hopefully a driver won't lose his life.
tiny carburetor plates and a fence board for a rear wing... I hope this package changes as well.
Jamie McMurray "I'm glad he's ok" you really meant not dead. The guy has serious injuries
I don't think he would or should say I'm glad he is not dead, he worded it as best that could be said.
Stfu jesus
I hope there are not gonna decrease the speed on the cars or else that would be boring
I would have been damned if the worst happened. The roof area needs more of a crush zone.
Good news! Praying for you.
I'll pray for a speedy recovery. No pun intended.
Like that car on its roof is on such an angle to one side that I cannot be ignored but nobody is talking about it.
While I'm glad he's going to be okay, I'm so uterly disgusted and disappointed with how Fox handled the coverage and itself during this, I'll never watch Nascar or any Fox program again. Fox/Disney should be sued and most definitely shamed for how this was handled.
Before you get mad at Fox, they didn't do a good job of filming the crash but they had all the angles we needed, the end of the race being cut was probably them being concerned about how serious of a crash it was and how everyone would be if Newman did happen to be killed. I don't like how they covered it but I understand why they did what they did.
Daniel Walker disney does not own Fox or Fox News. But I agree that this was handled horrendously.
I’ll bet you do.....you sound like a liberal whacko!
... nope. I'm an ultra right wing conservative.
Right is right and wrong is wrong. The end.
Yes it does seem that these cars had less grip than other years!
I hope it works out better for him than Schumacher. That upper roll bar over drivers door took a beating and bent inward towards drivers head. He is lucky all that leaking racing fuel from split fuel cell bladder pooling up under the upside down driver area didn't go up in a fireball. There were flames licking up from fuel filler nozzle only inches away...it was like a slow motion horror movie waiting for the fire extinguishers to arrive. One hell of a race ,get better soon RYAN
NASCAR Busch Clash at the Speedway was quite uneventful, Brad Keselowski said, "We shouldn't destroy all these cars!" hmmm,..that looked different to me,.. Nevertheless, I am a total fan of Brad. Greetings from Germany sends D.Richa. de la. Lesniewski
I wasn't worried until I saw the roof cave in when the other car hit him in the driver side while he was upside down. then I worried until I heard he was going to live.
Its almost like a 2001 with dale how Ryan cam u in the wall
Amazing how the number of severe wrecks like Ryan's has increased over the last few years, maybe if NASCAR quits screwing with the aero package ever year the drivers could get back to safer racing
Ryan Newman won that race in my mind!
Thank God almighty and the doctors for taking care of Ryan
No it is not, that is exactly the point of being a worldclass race driver.
The show must go on.
Get well soon Ryan !
I know Ryan will be back in that car. Alex Zennardi raced in the 24 hours of Daytona last year with no legs
He's had some of the scariest crashes in his career I hope all is ok and his wife makes him retire
I don't know if it was real or not but I saw a post where I guess he and Krissie got a divorce or are getting a divorce
They said that they were amicably separating. I don't think Newman should retire. I understand that it could be hard to get back in a racecar after a crash that he had but I feel that if he loves what he does, you shouldn't take that away from him.
On fox's 20th anniversary of nascar the 1st daytona fox broadcast saw Sr die. I thought it was going to repeat itself with Newman. Thank the Lord above he is alive. Gordon looked shaken up on Camera.
The worst hit, to me, looked like it was when he was upside down and that car smashed into his driver's side door area, but it was all open window there. That's when he took the worst of it, IMO. Then all of that gas leaking out onto the track, while some of it was on fire. It could have gone up at any moment, and we would have had to witness a death. Racing is serious business.
Everyone seems to think non life threatening means he will be fine.... serious condition for all you know could mean paralysis for all we know, it's good he will survive obviously but could probably mean his life will never be the same... hope the best for him
By the way what type of person realises that a driver needs extracted and screens are erected to respect privacy then not only films from a high teir then posts it onto UA-cam.
That sickens me as who needs to see that.
I hope that whoever these people are never need their privacy respected during a medical emergency.
Some people need taught respect; or given a slap.
Sorry to rant but that really pissed me off
The cars are going airborne, fix this NASCAR!!!
How about: Shutdown and Be gone, NASCAR!
The way he hit the wall lifted up the car air got under it and there is nothing you can do to design everything out they are the safest they have ever been
The spoilers on the roof take up a good part of the surface
@@Newberntrains i think the rear spoiler is lifting the back of the car up when the car is moving backwards.
Your an idiot, what have you fixed today? 3,200 people are killed in the us every day.....Fix this! More are maimed for life in the NFL!
I dont think if im doing 200+mph im going to take that chance blocking.. This wreck proves its putting your life on the line.. Luckily Newman will live I pray.. But I hate to see these guys push to far where they can die from a preventable situation..
Totally NASCAR's fault. Should have thrown yellow after white flag, there was a crash behind them, what happened to we don't race back to the line,hence the lucky dog. same guy would have won. seen many races end under caution, so what.
Thankful that Ryan Newman is only in serious condition.
Hopefully Nascar will change these speedway car's ?
We will see what happens next ?
The gen 7 car starts next year at the 2021 Daytona 500. We should see the gen 7 car unveiled at this years all star race.
Nothing will change...this is racing! You cannot predict anything in life, even with every safety feature envisioned!
